When we queue requests, we strive to batch as much as possible and also signal the network stack that more data is about to be sent over a socket with MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST. This flag looks at the pending requests queued as well as queue->more_requests that is derived from the block layer last-in-batch indication. We set more_request=true when we flush the request directly from .queue_rq submission context (in nvme_tcp_send_all), however this is wrongly assuming that no other requests may be queued during the execution of nvme_tcp_send_all. Due to this, a race condition may happen where: 1. request X is queued as !last-in-batch 2. request X submission context calls nvme_tcp_send_all directly 3. nvme_tcp_send_all is preempted and schedules to a different cpu 4. request Y is queued as last-in-batch 5. nvme_tcp_send_all context sends request X+Y, however signals for both MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST because queue->more_requests=true. ==> none of the requests is pushed down to the wire as the network stack is waiting for more data, both requests timeout. To fix this, we eliminate queue->more_requests and only rely on the queue req_list and send_list to be not-empty.
